Nope. Gnocchi with Parmesan then Meat or Fish. Lachie passed on the carbs but had about 2 1/2 serves of the meat!
Will add that the key stat they are concentrating on is handball carry. Ranked 18th last year with a negative. They were ranked 1 after the JLT.

Great evening at the club launch. Spoke with Lachie at length as well as Madeline Keryk.
Several things
- He wasnt a huge wrap for the trip to Tassie'- it rained for 3 days'!
- Bolts may be Mr smiley for interviews but is a very hard taskmastrer
- was fairly sure he was Carlton bound from the early stages of the draft
- confirmed the mindset is now very attacking. He and others are encouraged to break the lines and create the play
- Players are encouraged to "stand for something". SPS wants to be know as Mr Silky Smooth.

Only issue I had was I was disappointed Bolts didn't speak formally.

Big news was MLD announced the partnership with La Traobe Uni.

Interesting to get Madelines take on the AFLW. Not a big fan of a 7 week season nor a system whereby contracts are only for 1 year.

Great night with all players, AFL & AFLW in attendance. Thanks TC for giving me the chance to go.

Hope you had a good night.

Thanks for the update. :thumbsup:

Shit you wouldn’t give any of those girls longer contracts based on this year.

Thanks for the info AIRCAV

Lets hope this attacking play on strategy brings us lots of goals this year and beyond.

Interesting about Standing for Something.

Lachie must have got something of value in Tassie.
What about team building?
What about getting to know the boys?

Must have been some positives for him.

Is he happy to be at Carlton?
What did he think about the pace of the game in the JLT?

Some deserve a longer contract.

I was being a bit tongue in check about his tassie trip. Very tough, lots of team building and they were joined by Pickett, SPS and Garnett.

Very happy to be at Carlton. Interesting that he’s hardly been in a club environment, playing for 4 different teams last year.

He’s lodging with a regular Carlton rookie host. LOB is her 18th hosting. After years of boarding school, he’s enjoying being well looked after.
